TSB's

This TSB applies to 2009 Jeep Liberty, Chrysler Town & Country/Grand Caravan and a host of other Jeep models including Wrangler, Nitro and Cherokee.

In the System Test tab of wiTECH, record the “Last VTA Trigger” cause.

Yes >>> Perform the repair procedure.No >>> Proceed to Step 4.

Are DTCs U0010 AND U0001 present in the TIPM?
